San Giorgio La Molara

The area sits in the hills of the Sannio, with cultivated ridges, small woods and stream-cut valleys typical of the inland Benevento province. The Fortore valley lies nearby, and the wider landscape is that of the southern Apennine foothills rather than a single marked landmark. Benevento is the nearest larger town with full services and major historic monuments, including the Roman Arch of Trajan and the church complex of Santa Sofia, a UNESCO site. This part of the Sannio is known for cereals, olive groves and wine, especially the broader Benevento wine area.
